  • Many performance benchmarks are limited to single instance load generation (single pod load generator). This limits the amount of traffic that can be generated to the output of the single machine that the benchmark tool runs on in or out of a cluster.
  • Distributed load testing in parallel poses a challenge when merging results without losing the precision we need to gain insight into the high tail percentiles.
